Chapter 379: Only "Whinging"
Hua Fei sipped a cup of hot tea to refresh herself, but the words she uttered were cold in their tone.
The little eunuch kneeling on the ground was huddled into a ball.
This morning, he thought his plan had succeeded. He had both climbed onto the big tree of Concubine Hua and secured the silver rewarded by the noble.
What's more, Hua Fei, under her own instigation, really went along with the mistake and wore the imperial concubine's auspicious clothes, and the emperor took the opportunity to give the Nian family this honor.
If it is really as he thought, then a monk from outside might become a celebrity in Yiku Palace. By then, he will not be able to compare with Zhou Ninghai, the eunuch, and he will be on par with Xiaolouzi.
However, when he happily followed Zhou Ninghai out of the main hall of Yiku Palace in the morning, he was caught in a pitch-black sack and then beaten in the dark.
If I cried out that I was innocent, I would be beaten up in the dark.
Later he discovered a pattern: whenever he spoke, he would be beaten.
So later in the sack, he stopped talking.
Because he remained silent, the eunuchs who were beating him thought he was dead. They hurriedly lifted the sack, and the young eunuch was able to see the light of day again.
As soon as he saw clearly that the leader was Xiaolouzi, Xiaolouzi looked at him. Xiaolouzi inexplicably felt that the eyes of this young eunuch were full of dissatisfaction and provocation towards him. Xiaolouzi got angry and started beating him without saying a word.
The little eunuch also became stubborn and just sat there like a punching bag without saying a word.
So when the ceremony for Concubine Hua was over, the eunuch's nose and face were bruised and swollen like a pig's head, but Xiao Louzi didn't get a single question out of him.
Originally, Concubine Hua sent Zhou Ninghai to interrogate the young eunuch again, but because the emperor arrived suddenly, it failed.
Now Concubine Hua will come to judge the case personally.
"Your Majesty, please understand. I am stupid. I just wanted to work in the Yiku Palace, but I didn't expect that I failed to please Your Majesty." The little eunuch's mouth was swollen because he was beaten, and he could only speak with a mouthful of saliva.
Concubine Hua didn't hear it very clearly, and her impatient frown was quickly caught by Zhou Ninghai, who went up and slapped the young eunuch again.
Now both sides of his face are swollen symmetrically.
"You dare to be vague when the queen asks you questions? Answer honestly." Zhou Ninghai threatened.
The young eunuch felt that his head was buzzing and the corners of his mouth were buzzing. He could utter a few words vaguely just now, but now he could only make "嘤嘤嘤".
Why are the people in Yikun Palace so unreasonable? How can they talk when they are in this situation?
It's so unfair~
"You seem to be at a loss for words." Concubine Hua glanced at the young eunuch and said, "How about this: I ask you questions and you just nod or shake your head in response?"
Young eunuch: There are still reasonable people in the Yikun Palace.
"If your nodding and shaking of your head is not to my liking, then Eunuch Zhou will give you a few more slaps."
Little eunuch: Oh my god!
"I guess you just joined the Clothing Bureau not long ago?"
The young eunuch nodded.
"I guess the place you worked before wasn't as good as the job at the Clothing Bureau?"
The young eunuch nodded.
"I guess you just joined the Clothing Bureau and you got the good job of escorting me to wear my auspicious attire. You must think it's a piece of cake."
The cautious light in the young eunuch's eyes instantly turned into shock, and he nodded.
"I guess the person who instructed you to do this didn't come to Yikun Palace today."
